I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.
He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

I don’t understand why Dems have to choose? “Trump is a corrupt billionaire pedo whose self-serving policies have made your life more expensive” is not that hard of a message imo
The usual suspects are telling Dems that Epstein won’t win elections, get back to “affordability” and I think my head might explode. www.offmessage.net/p/force-a-re...
Force A Referendum On The Epstein Coverup
It divides Republicans much more than "affordability" or any other economic issue.

Trump is appealing the judicial order to pay full SNAP benefits by tomorrow.
He’s spending tax payer dollars going back to court to try and avoid giving folks money they are legally owed.
He’s starving 42 million people because to him they are leverage.
It’s enraging.

Not a word from the ADL’s Jonathan Greenblatt on Tucker hosting Fuentes. Amazing.
I just checked his Twitter feed and plenty on Mamdani and even Norway (!) but not a word about a top conservative podcaster hosting an infamous Holocaust denier.
Greenblatt is beyond parody at this point.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

I am begging the mainstream media to talk less about the East Wing & more about the loss of SNAP funding for the next few days.
The East Wing is gone. We can’t change that.
We *can* help people prepare for the loss of SNAP.
We can urge folks to donate to food banks.
We can give them warning.

There is no difference between Trump destroying the East Wing and using a wrecking ball on the Washington Monument or Smithsonian. Just because he (temporarily) lives there doesn't give him the right to demolish the White House without Congressional approval.
